Fyodor Dostoyevsky _ The Brothers Karamazov
The worst of such stories is that the triumphant romancers can always be put to confusion and crushed by the very details in which real life is so rich and which these unhappy and involuntary story-tellers neglect as insignificant trifles.

But that's how they are caught.
